XF 1.4 A few questions

[MirandaSings]

Hi I'm new to Xenforo.

I have a few questions:
1) How do I change the title of my forum and add a logo (I already have a logo)
2) I set all my permissions but the permissions aren't being applied?
3) How do I create forums within a forum? Whenever I try to do that the forum is put on the outside (home page) and not the inside of the forum.
4) How do you lock a forum but only have staff members post in it? Or hide forums from registered users and only visible by staff members?
5) How do I add my facebook page on the home?

I tried to navigate the admin panel but I'm new here and the admin panel seems hard to navigate.

Thanks

Ensure the avatar file size user group permission is set to unlimited or something more than zero.

My forum is really small, how can I make it look zoomed in like www.forum.gameznetwork.com?
My forum is DreamAion

It's not totally clear what you refer to when you say "small" and "zoomed in".

Both sites look relatively normal to me.

 

[MirandaSings]

like is there a way to bring the template closer to the screen for everyone?

 

[Amaury]

What do you mean by "bring the template closer to the screen"?

 

[Martok]

It might be an idea for you to post some screenshots of what you see when you visit your site and the other site you referenced in your previous post. Currently both sites just normal to us.

 

[MirandaSings]

This is what I see, anyway I can maybe make the template look bigger/zoomed in? Maybe make the staff online bar bigger?

Also I can't install any add ons because there's always some type of error whenever I upload an xml file?

 

[Amaury]

What exactly do you want to make bigger? The block itself or the text?

 

[MirandaSings]

Yes both

 

[Amaury]

I don't think the block itself can be made bigger, but to change the font size, go to Style Properties > Sidebar > Block Heading.

Ok I have a few more questions regarding addons and what not o;
1) How do I change the color of categories?
2) What addon is this?


3) How do I put the description of each forum outside and not on the inside?
Example:


4) Why doesn't Taiga Shoutbox work? I installed the addon and enabled it but it doesn't appear anywhere v:
TaigaChat - AJAX Shoutbox

5) How to add this logo to staff online?


Sorry for so many questions lol

 

[MirandaSings]

Bumping this a bit

How do I change the color of categories?

Check here: CSS - Multi Coloured Category Nodes | customizeXF

What addon is this?

I think it's Modern Statistics from ******* (but you won't get it here on XenForo)

How do I put the description of each forum outside and not on the inside?

You mean not in the popup?

Why doesn't Taiga Shoutbox work? I installed the addon and enabled it but it doesn't appear anywhere

Ask in add-on's discussion thread.

How to add this logo to staff online?

Check the sidebar_online_users template and search for {xen:phrase staff_online_now}
. Add image or Font Awesome icon before it.

 

[MirandaSings]

Hi thanks for replying

Check here: CSS - Multi Coloured Category Nodes | customizeXF

Will check that out thanks

You mean not in the popup?

I mean xenforo only has description of each forum inside but not displayed outside the forum
Example: (xenforo inside)

Xenforo outside (homepage no description)

What I want it to look like (description showing inside and outside)
Outside description (home page)


Inside the forum description:

Ask in add-on's discussion thread.

Will do that, thanks.

Check the sidebar_online_users template and search for {xenhrase staff_online_now}. Add image of Font Awesome icon before it.

Where would I find the awesome icon? is that the name of the logo in the picture? lol

Sorry, I type it wrong. You can add an image or Font Awesome icon if you like to use it. Read some example here: Thread prefix with Font Awesome icons

Thanks so much

That's for thread prefixes, not for staff logo icons o;.

 

[BassMan]

That's for thread prefixes, not for staff logo icons

It was an example. Then look here: Unmaintained - FontAwesome Icons in Sidebar

I can't seem to find the sidebar_online_users file? I searched for it but it's not there? :/ Sidebar.js was the only files found, are they the same?

I seemed to find
<h3><a href="{xen:link members, '', 'type=staff'}">{xenhrase staff_online_now}</a></h3>
but not
<h3>{xenhrase staff_online_now}</h3>

Anyway to search it?
